Again, we had a case about China. This time, it was about a manufacturing company in europe sourcing assembled parts from China. One of it's fears is the chinese habit to copy everything they can get their hands on. The classic total ignorance of stealing someone else's intellectual property "with pride" as they would put it.
The prof made a comment, quoting an executive whose company's product was copied: "for them, the definition of copyright is the right to copy."
I guess that is another definition for copright, as to Free Software Foundation's CopyLeft concept.
About Me
- Sia
- Lausanne, Switzerland
- This marks my return to Switzerland after living in the U.S. for the last 12 years. I moved to Switzerland to "find myself" and get an MBA at the same time. After finishing my MBA at IMD in 2006, I joined a tech startup in Switzerland. I switched employer and now work for a US technology company. This would be the third continent I've lived in: Asia, America, and Europe.
